My Lunch with Rey Mysterio

[kunswwfmark]

I had a nice little conversation with Vince Russo once.

He told me a story about being in attendence at one of the Raw magazine cover shoots.

We didn't have lunch together, but he did sign my Death of WCW book.

Oh, and I'll believe the Rey story when I see a picture.

Darn near Chickie Singer in proportions, to go a lil EZ Board days.

And if a scenario like the one you've related in your lil fairytale ever actually occurred, it'd be a total prick move to do to someone.

I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt since he has 2,500 posts to his credit. If I had a 2 minute interrogation, I would know if he was telling the truth.

[Grendel]

Not sure if I believe the story, as I am a cynic by nature. But if the story is true, it was a real dick thing to do, getting him to sign that pic. But that's just me, I wouldn't have done anything like that. But for right now, I'm calling shenanigans on it until pics are posted.

I didn't know Matt Murdock posted here. Heh.

See I could see someone being a douche and saying 'here sign this thing that insults both you and one of your best friends who is no longer living.' I don't then see the person you insulted then going, hey let's hit the sizzler.

Not true...just a guy here on the forum who wants some attention. Nice fictional story thou. Rey goes nowhere without his mask....

He did say that the mask was off after the show, when he ran into him the parking lot. Naturally, Rey didn't try to avoid the guy who insulted him in the autograph line, he wanted to discuss his legacy with the rude sob. Apparently, Rey doesn't like his marks. Rather that going to lunch with them, he would prefer to eat with someone that views him as a joke.

The next step would be someone coming up with


"Yeah I saw Dean Malenko and told him I thought he sucked, but then told him if he wanted we could hit Red Lobster my treat. He declined, but then I said, Shooter I'll be at Red Lobster if you change your mind..."

lol!!

I'm sorry. I dont care if I get banned for this. If that story is true, then you are an asshole. Why take that picture to him? He didnt write his title win. He didnt write about Eddie. He probably feels like crap already about how he was booked and how he has been booed over it. Actually asking him to sign that picture is as low as someone can go. You should be ashamed. That goes to all the people who put "that was awesome" on here. Theres nothing awesome about it.

Yeah, he's kinda lucky it WAS Rey and not, say, someone like Chris Benoit who may have signed the thing and then made him eat the picture. *insert "If it's true" disclaimer somewhere*

[Jeff]

You are an ass, but at the same time that was kinda cool of you.

[Kevin Hamilton]

Thanks for that ell oh ell, I'm pretty proud of linking the Shooter Dean Malenko and Shooter Mcgavin in my wacky pun myself.

Don't sweat it heartbreak kid, one, it IS a dick move if someone was to actually do so, two, there's no chance ( that's what he's got) that it actually took place.

Yeah, the difference between the crossface hurting a lot and not at all is just a little bit of muscle.

Crossface hell ... I think Benoit is the kind of guy who would jump the table and beat the holy ol' hell out of you if you tried to do something like that.

I was picturing more of the "Al Bundy Dummy" toss out the door to punctuate it. But exactly.

So, today here in Indianapolis, Rey Rey was in town for the Carquest "World Of Wheels". That got me thinking. I forget who had it, but somebody on here had the image of Rey with the World Title, and below it said "Who died and made you World Champion?" in their sig. Well, I took that, printed it up, and had it blown up onto an 8x10 gloss. I took it with me to get it signed.

Yes, I'm a dick. So I get up to him and hand it to him, and his shoulders just drop. He says "Come on, man. I can't sign this." At which point I threw back "Come on, Rey! Do it for Eddie!" He scribbled his name on it and left it at that. For the rest of his signing, whenever I'd look over by him I could see that he was distressed.

So, his appearance is over and he's leaving. Before he leaves, he passes by me. I'm busy looking at a beautiful apple green Corvette, and he stops right next to me and says "So, does everybody have that same attitude about my run?" I had no idea he was there, so I look over and down and mark out a small bit. He was without the mask, which made it that much better. I told him yeah, for the most part, and we got to talking. He said he had to be on a flight in a few hours, and I offered to buy him lunch, which he accepted.

I'll say this right now. Rey Mysterio, for all the crap he gets, is a great guy. I took him to a pretty good steakhouse here in town and just talked to him for about an hour. He said that the only reason he even did the angle was because "Creative didn't have anything else for him" and they wanted to milk the Eddie Guerrero name for all it was worth. He regrets doing it, and wishes he could go back and never have even started it. I told him about this site, WHICH HE KNOWS ABOUT!!!, and he wanted me to pass along a message:

"To all my fans here on the Internet, I'm sorry. I know that over the past year I've tarnished the Guerrero name by turning his untimely death into yet another wrestling angle. Believe me, if I had the chance to go back, I'd tell Ace no (yes, the "Do it for Eddie" idea was Ace's), and I'd rather sit on the sidelines or go to OVW or something than destroy the name of somebody who was like a brother to me, all for a westling angle. Vickie and Chavo are the same way, but the only reason they're doing it is to keep the income that Eddie was bringing in. Again, I'm sorry for the lengths the angle went to."

After that I picked up the tab, had him actually sign something (I had the "Who Died" photo in a frame and offered it to him, which he declined), and he went to his hotel. A great day if I do say so myself.

And Rey knows about Da Crap! He loves the site, but hasn't seen the "Eddiesploitation" induction yet.

Sorry to go off topic here, but has anyone ever seen this movie?

Nope, but have you seen this?

[kickassforumguyme]

You think this guys lying?

I think so too.

Who paints a sweet car like a Corvette green?

[Hemmeorrhage]

It seems like such a waste to bring Rey to a steakhouse.

"Excuse me waiter, my friend in the mask would like a 2 oz. Porterhouse"

wow....

so Ace is the bastard who thought of the whole idea...he's an ass

See, even if Ace came up with it, Vince or Steph still could have shot it down. But they didn't.
